Ihave received letters from Manyasha and Mitya, Mother
dearest, informing me that you have received my telegram
and have taken a firm decision not to make the
journey.[1]Are you better now? When (and where) is Manyasha leaving?
When are you moving to a new apartment or to Moscow?
I am sending you today a registered package with a book
I should have returned long ago. I apologise for the delay.
Many kisses for you and regards to all.

Yours,V. U.

Nadyaand Y.V. send regards.
